My God, those are gorgeous. I can't wait to see them ingame in SimpleClient. The gist of tree leaf textures is that they need to be fully-32-bit textures, that is, with alpha transparency. OpenZone has a menu entry that will convert a masked texture to a fully alpha-transparent one (where "masked" means you have a single color representing the transparent areas AND that color exists at the image corners so OpenZone can identify it).

MMCB

the rar file also contains a linker map for that zone.

Ok looks like a tutorial is needed for OZ transparency and leaf textures.
I'll start this today - also may make it into a video tutorial as that may be more clear.

Your welcome, I don't have alot of time to work on them so what I give out is made from whatever spare time I have and I'm glad someone is getting some enjoyment from them.

What you are doing is incredible.

INCREDIBLE.

And IF you do decide to (please) share the files you built these with so that people can learn some of the more advanced features by example (heightmaps, trees, etc.), I have a strong feeling that you may be the catalyst of a whole new facet of eqemu--custom zone designers.

Is there a reason after adding these files as a GM I cant zone there
